Sousou no Frieren - What do the German names mean?
Did you watch the great fantasy anime Sousou no Frieren already? You can read my review of the anime here.
You will notice that all the names of the characters, and sometimes cities etc., are German words - since I speak German I made a list with translation of those names, which often describe the characteristics of the person well.
Main characters
Frieren means being cold, freezing
Himmel means heaven
Heiter means cheery
Eisen means iron
Stark means strong
Fern means far away
Sousou no Frieren 8/10
"Sousou no Frieren" is a breathtaking anime that delves into the profound themes of friendship, mortality, and the passage of time with grace and poignancy. Adapted from the manga series written by Kanehito Yamada and illustrated by Tsukasa Abe, this anime captures the essence of its source material while adding its own layer of visual and emotional depth.

Migi to Dali aka Migi & Dali 6/10
"Migi to Dali" is an absurd and fun anime, the smart and very stretchy identical twin brothers are its biggest strength, however, as soon as the story gets too serious, the charm is lost, and that's its undoing. As much as I enjoyed the first 8 episodes, the show didn't stick the landing.

Jujutsu Kaisen 7/10
If you were to mix Naruto, Bleach and Hunter x Hunter, you'd get Jujutsu Kaisen. A fun shōnen manga/anime that perfectly blends dark fantasy, intense action, and intricate character development. I enjoyed the show a lot, but it's not without flaws.

Blue Period 7/10
This is one of the few times I knew the manga before the anime, and I remember loving the manga, because the characters were fun and the story revolves around art and what it means to become an artist. Mangaka seem to be experts in that field, and I wonder why there aren't more of them writing basically autobiographic stories about their path to becoming mangaka.

Fuufu Ijou, Koibito Miman aka More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers 6/10
This anime gave me a headache as well "blue balls" (though I'm female). A love story that revolves around high schoolers that are constantly horny for each other, but can't seem to just say "I love you". In this case, even their school is forcing the students to be married for some psycho reason, and our main protagonist still acts like a fool every second he gets a chance.
